This T-Mobile 4-line promo pairs four iPhone 17s with an Essentials plan around $100 a month for 24 months, and the strongest draw is the upfront phone credit with no trade-in on many setups. Costco and Sam's Club can waive the $35 activation fee and add gift cards, while the plan includes 50GB of premium data and hotspot on paper. The main catches are taxes, fees, possible down payments, and strict port-in rules that often exclude prepaid or recent T-Mobile numbers. It is a better fit for shoppers who can meet the port and line requirements and tolerate the 24-month commitment.

"Unlimited Deal — 3 Lines for $85/Month — Get three lines of Unlimited for $85/month, with a price that's locked in as long as you stay!"
This magically DIDN'T stay "locked in as long as you stay" and turned into $110/mo for me when I had exactly that, had been with T-Mobile for like 12 years and had just had enough with the constant lies, along with all of the constant data breaches.
Ironically I went to Mint Mobile, which is still T-Mobile really, and just pay the $15/mo unlimited with no bells and whistles, but since United Airlines is going to free Starlink (no need for the T-Mobile inflight WiFi bonus), and the cost savings per month make up way more than things like "Netflix on us", there was just no point anymore, and I'll deal with the deprioritized data which is a little annoying at times, but ultimately, my life isn't greatly affected by it.
